Chapter 78 Going Abroad
It's that simple, what else do you want to do?
In the eyes of most people in the Gaia Group, steel mills are the future of the group. That's why they care so much about this matter. If something happens, everyone will be in a panic all day long.
But in Zhang Quan's view, this domestic stake, including Maling Steel Plant, is also a burden. If it grows in the future, more channels and industries will come in. The shares of the domestic steel plant are difficult to deal with. Even if it can make money, it will cause trouble. For people like him, it will not be worth the loss. He holds cheating tools like the space shuttle in his hand, and has the confidence to not worry about future development at all. He knows clearly what he can have in the future, so there is no need to take too much risk in business.
Therefore, when people with different horizons and minds deal with things, their styles are completely different. This is the reason why people want to go to a higher level.
Just like Lao Li and Wang Zhijun did this matter, in the minds of the core leadership of the Gaia Group, how big it was. It seemed that if it was not handled properly, the huge Gaia Group would be broken apart. But unexpectedly, when Zhang Quan came back, he would deal with it in a few seconds, and the others didn't care at all.
The balance of gains and imbalances in this has to be said to be worth pondering.
Zhang Quan didn't say much, just hope that his friends can see their future situation from their own handling, so as to obtain fundamental changes in their mentality and keep up with Zhang Quan's development.
In short, many of these things can only be understood, not expressed in words, and contain a lot of information.
If someone thinks about it, he can completely go to the next level and look at the broader world.
It is impossible for Gaia Group to always rely on such a small group of people to do things, and they will always develop in the future.
...
As soon as the matter in the ancient city was over, Zhang Quan embarked on a journey abroad. In fact, his friends who had bid farewell to them at the airport did not know that this was his first time going abroad in the true sense.
Zhang Quan's first stop to go abroad this time was Xiangjiang. His Yangcheng Foreign Trade Company, a subsidiary of Gaia Group, has now been transferred here. Therefore, when he got off the plane from Lantau International Airport, his other right-hand assistant in the group, Huang Weijia, general manager of Yangcheng Foreign Trade Company, has led the crowd to wait here.
Huang Weijia is an excellent professional manager that Zhang Quan encountered when he acquired Yangcheng Foreign Trade. What's even better is that this person is not only capable, but also has a more vivid vision. This guy went abroad in his early years and experienced many industries. He knew and knew a lot of tricks in doing business abroad. Zhang Quan's many private gray things are usually left to him to deal with now.
As soon as we met, Huang Weijia talked about the important matter with Zhang Quan.
"Mr. Zhang! We have prepared what you ordered here, and you can only come here!" They have been in Yangcheng, a place with fierce business competition for a long time, and are engaged in foreign trade, the most efficient industry. Their work is now their instinct.
Zhang Quan was very satisfied with this high efficiency. In fact, the same was true of his own habits. He waved his hand and said:
"Oh? Then the other materials, seeds, cement, steel bars, building materials, etc. are ready?"
"Everything is ready, that's all left!"
"Well, that's good, then arrange your departure as soon as possible. The accompanying staff...all the others have been arranged!"
Huang Weijia replied:
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, everything is arranged."
"good!"
Zhang Quan nodded and sat in the carriage prepared by the pick-up staff.
So the group returned to the nearby hotel in a crowd. Zhang Quan took a short rest here and then set off again overnight. The end point of this trip was the destination of the Philippines. The next day, Zhang Quan and his group appeared at the famous tourist attraction in the Philippines, Cebu Island Airport.
This time Zhang Quan came here to build an arms base specifically for his armed forces in another world. Otherwise, with the size of the orcs, holding industrial products from the human world, it would be even more difficult to advance to the age of thermal weapons.
This matter cannot be done in China, and now with Zhang Quan's conditions, the most suitable one is here - the Philippines, which is now the largest underground black arms production base in Southeast Asia.
The Philippines' underground arms manufacturing has a very long history. Since the rule of the Spanish Empire in the last century, there have been formed hand-made arms workshops here to provide services to the local Spanish garrison.
Subsequently, the Philippines experienced the period of American and Japanese rule, unrest, national revolution and warlord separatist rule. However, for a long time, underground arms manufacturing has been prosperous on this land. There are underground arms workshops almost everywhere in the Philippines, and even Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is no exception. All of this is due to the government's long-term lack of administrative capabilities and poor public order, which made the Filipinos have to choose to wear guns for safety.
Now, it has become a habit for domestic people to wear guns, forming a huge local market demand. Although the quality of the Philippines' underground arms is poor, the benefit is low cost. It is said that there are three million black guns among the people, which can be called everyone armed. Here, black arms and black guns have become a resident culture. The Philippines' underground arms are no longer just meeting domestic needs, but are sold overseas, becoming one of the main sources of black guns in the world, and truly becoming an Asian "arsia".
It will naturally not attract attention if a gun factory is built here. The black gun workshops here are all over the streets, which are truly a pillar industry in the local area. Moreover, they will also receive strong assistance from locals, and locals have excellent traditions in this regard.
Of course, even so, gun factories are still black and cannot be put on the table. The Philippines' national law clearly does not allow these workshops to exist. Although there are gun factories everywhere, hand-work guns are almost the pillar industry of the local area. The reason why Zhang Quan was able to run a factory here is ultimately due to the poor control of the Philippines' national government over the local area. People regard Zhang Quan as an overseas investment.
Zhang Quan did not have high requirements for this gun factory, but he could customize simple firearms according to his own requirements. To ensure quality, some existing underground workshops in the local area could meet his requirements. After Huang Weijia discussed with him that day, Huang Weijia spent a lot of effort to get along with the people here through his relationship and helped him find a large local "workshop". The specific conditions were agreed in advance. The purpose of Zhang Quan came here in person was to completely finalize the matter and inspect the specific situation on the spot.
Zhang Quan and his group came here and were welcomed by the local owner. The original owner of the workshop was He Jiajin in Chinese and had a bit of Chinese ancestry. He was originally a local bully. He was a large group of people to maintain his local ruling order. This workshop was originally raised by him, and the main purpose was to provide the arms needed by his subordinates, which was a waste of money and food. Now, a foreign wealthy man came to buy it suddenly, and it did not destroy the cooperative relationship between the two parties and maintain the supply of his weapons. It was very suitable for him. Zhang Quan's acquisition was very happy. As a local local snake, he was not worried that the local workshop would be taken away by someone, which would in turn be detrimental to him. The acquisition of this gun factory was said to be a foreign investment, but it was actually similar to investing in him.
Things were smooth sailing, and by the way, I also took a tour around and saw the local tropical island scenery. However, after Zhang Quan and his people were on-site inspection of his "workshop", they were still very disappointed.
The so-called large workshops here are actually a little more crowded! They are not much different from small hardware processing factories in the mainland. They do not have large-scale mechanical processing equipment, nor supporting special steel smelting factories. At most, there are simple mechanical processing equipment and more craftsmen. A group of handicrafts people who have not learned modern knowledge gather together. With their "ancestral" craftsmanship, simple processing methods and limited tools, they can actually make a weapon - gun that mankind can dominate the world by relying on their "ancestorical" craftsmanship, simple processing methods and limited tools! It is really unimaginable.
The production process in the workshop is basically semi-mechanical and semi-handed. The most outrageous one is that the pistol body is still cast and polished by hand, and there is not even a milling machine, which really makes Zhang Quan speechless.
How did the people here build such a large arms industry chain under such industrial conditions?
Return to the underground arms - the capital!
I am afraid that no country with a little industrial foundation will recognize this title. I am afraid that any national military-industrial enterprise in our country will be able to increase its output quality by more than the sum of all underground gun factories in the entire country.
However, disappointment is disappointment. Although the workshop here is simple, it is still fine to meet his own requirements. In fact, semi-hand manufacturing is the most economical. Here, the cheap workers and low investment costs are really in line with his wishes.
